My update

Sorry I haven't been around for a while. I think I needed to take a break from the boards for a bit. DH has been travelling a lot recently (he got another promotion - more travel, no more money ... yet

) so I've been pretty busy with Luke. He isn't very tolerant of my computer these days. He comes up and closes the lid of my laptop if he sees me using it. It was cute at first, but it's starting to get very old. Right now he's outside playing with his new sandpit, so I get a few minutes to sneak on here.

I hope everyone is okay, especially all you

ones. I'm sure everyone is busy with real life at the moment or just enjoying the good weather.

Anyway, despite DH's travelling we did manage to start ttc last month and I got a

a couple of days ago. I'm really excited and scared to death at the same time.

Just keeping my

that it works out this time.

Karen

on your BFP I am thrilled for you, I have been wondering how you were doing and kind of figured you would lay low for a while ...its not easy.

I know it is easy to say but please try not to worry as most likely everything will be fine this time ..will your doc send you for an early scan? Ask if he will these are great for reassurance.

we are 'ok' here I have high BP and am feeling not tip top conditionbut I guess betweenthat and my cholestasis flaring up I will have an early inductions so I am trying not to moan too much LOL.

Thanks Emma and Amanda. I'm due in February this time around. I haven't been to the doctor yet, but the online calculators say 9th Feb. That's two days after my sister's 30th birthday and 11 days after DH's 35th birthday.

I am trying to just enjoy being pregnant again, but it feels kind of surreal. I've spent most of this year adjusting to being

again and then not being

. I'm not sure I really believe I am actually pregnant at the moment. I don't really have any symptoms yet (except sore boobs) but I'm sure I'll soon be complaining about morning sickness and wishing I didn't have any symptoms again.

Sorry you're not feeling too great Amanda. This seems to have been a really hard pregnancy for you this time, what with the earlier worries and all. I hope Summer will make an early arrival to save you from too much suffering. Don't your babies normally come early anyway? How did your scan go? Have you had it yet?

on your

Karen, as Amanda said I'm sure all will be fine this time! It's a bummer that your DH is traveling more, I suppose it wouldnt be too bad if he was getting the £££'s for it, hopefully soon they'll give him the pay rise to match the promotion.

I know what you mean about little ones not liking us being on the pc, Christopher also has a problem with me typing on here, I always have to make sure he has something to enjoy first. The cuteness doesnt last too long.

I've just got back from another few days in the hospital again, with a throat & urine infection, high blood sugars and vomiting! I understand how you feel about the symptoms my m/s is still lurking around. Hopefully this will be the last time and I can start to enjoy the rest of the pregnancy.

It's great to have you back on the boards, we did miss not having you around

Sending you lots and lots of

Congratulations Karen and family

Take it easy and enjoy being PG

i think other PGs after your 1st are a bit strange, with running around after toddlers etc you dont really notice little changes that you did 1st time round
